I would pay $25 more an iPhone where the majority of its parts were manufactured in America.

If all parts of the iPhone were built in the US of A it would cost $100 more according to the University of Syracuse. Solely because we lack nearly all logistical and infrastructural capacity to mass produce technologically advanced industrial components at scale and with dynamic parameterization.

Why would I care if it was imported from US or China?

Not to mention, I wouldn't buy iPhone in the first place.

Not for an iPhone, no. For something else, yes, I'd probably be willing to pay a little extra.
